Here's the latest progress in my rear bumper. Don't like the looks of the plate bumpers out there, so I decided to make my own. I've seen some that are similar to what I have, but not the same. It's still not finished, I need to cut it off and finish welding it up. I also need to clean up some of the bubble gum welds that I have. Then it's time to fab up some plate and receiver tube to make me a hitch. All in all, I think it turned out pretty good for my first time.

Total cost... $50!

I did in machine/welding shop class. I worked as a welder for 5 months for the school district here.

Well, I have to admit that wasting $50 on pointless bull**** is better than wasting $800...

Ahhhh I kid, I kid. Well, not really - there is absolutely no purpose to rear bumpers, but that is supremely badass for a home brew!
